To enhance its historical imprint and industrial value, the architectural potential of the building was investigated before initiating the transformation process that eventually gave a new life and destination to the space. Through measures, such as modifying the façade and creating a garden, gres art 671 has embraced a contemporary dimension, yet honouring its original character.
The entrance was given a new lease of life by demolishing a building previously functional to production activities - now unnecessary for this new cultural space-open to the community and intended for exhibitions and events of various kinds. The result is a large square - an open, vibrant and inclusive space - that guides you through two pavilions, located in an area divided in turn into two large bays: one aimed at hospitality and free time, and the second for exhibition projects. These are flanked by a large garden with free access.
If the starting point of gres art 671 was a former industrial building, its end point is instead a public place of social and cultural relations, whose identity is gradually shaped by those who experiment it and by the cultural activities that come to life here.
